A watch lost two minutes per hour. If on monday 9 A.M the watch was exactly showing 9 A.M. Then what is the time on wednesday 9A.M.
9Am, of course.
But the watch shows 9:00AM - 0:2*48 = 7:24 AM
Jj
To find the time on Wednesday at 9 A.M., we need to consider the watch losing two minutes per hour starting from Monday at 9 A.M. until Wednesday at 9 A.M, which is 48 hours.
If the watch loses two minutes per hour, we need to subtract 48 minutes from the original time. Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, the adjusted time would be 12 minutes behind the original time.
So, Wednesday at 9 A.M. minus 12 minutes would be:
9:00 AM - 12 minutes = 8:48 AM
Therefore, the time on Wednesday at 9 A.M would actually be 8:48 AM.
